LIVERPOOL have received a double fitness boost, the club announced this morning.

Youth pair Ryan Kent and Samed Yesil could return to action next month.

Yesil, who has two first team appearances under his belt, has undergone rehab following a succession of injuries.

Both are due to return for the Fulham clash on April 7.

Under-21 manager Michael Beale said: "Samed has been back in for about 10 days now. After such a long time out, he hasn't got that core fitness. But we're hoping by the Fulham game, he'll be ready to play some minutes.

"We want him to get a good three or four months of playing and a good pre-season in him, to show his own potential. His finishing is probably second-to-none in our group at U21s."

He added: "Ryan is a really exciting player and can play in a number of positions. We can't rush him; we're hoping he can get some minutes in the Fulham game.

"When he got injured we were devastated for him because at the time Ryan was getting quite a bit of interest in terms of going out on loan and was a star player in the U21s."
